Please study the relevant section in NR
http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/the-articulate-script
There you can read
"After altering your input file this way, the visual output is heavily
altered, but the standard \midi block will produce a better MIDI file.
"
Thus it's good practise to use two scores, one with \layout only
another with \midi only

It's quite tedious to have a zip file, better attach the code in one file.

try:

\include "articulate.ly"

#(define ac:normalFactor '(1 . 2))
%% ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

\score {
  %\unfoldRepeats %needed if showLastLength
  \unfoldRepeats \articulate
  <<
    \new Staff \with {
      instrumentName = #"Guitar 1 "
      shortInstrumentName = #""
    }
    <<\global \guitarOne>>
  >>
  \midi {}
}

Though there aren't that much articulations in your code ...

Most recent articulate.ly:
